CaptoGlove is a hand machine interface with advanced technology to precisely detect a wide variety of
hand and finger movements. These gestures are translated into control commands which are sent
directly to connected devices (such as PCs, VR Headsets, Smart Home, Internet of Things, iOS/Android
Phones and Tablets, etc) to interact and control them faster, more naturally and effectively.
CaptoGlove is designed with multiple use scenarios in mind, and can control virtually any device with
its Bluetooth Low Energy (BTLE) connectivity. One glove can be used as a single controller or
coupled with another CaptoGlove for use as a pair.
The most popular uses for CaptoGlove include as a controller for video games, PCs, mobile phones,
tablets and smart home devices, as well as a healthcare rehabilitation and professional training
tool (for instance, to enable simulators to read and analyze user hand movements).

Size information
CaptoGlove’s comes in two sizes M, L. The M (6.5†– 8â€) size fits small hands such as those of kids. If you have a common sized hand or a big hand we suggest you buy the L (7.5†– 10â€) size. During our exhibitions and demonstrations we found out that the elastic material of CaptoGlove fits very well even bigger hands.
